Russia's President Vladimir Putin announced Sunday a successful final test of a new nuclear-powered cruise missile, the Burevestnik, amid Moscow's ongoing Ukraine offensive and uncertainty over a new summit with US leader Donald Trump.
"The decisive tests are now complete," Putin said in a video released by the Kremlin during a meeting with military officials.
